I am doing some power managemenet related debugging and would like to see and
possibly modify some of the hidden settings described in the document
"Processor Power Management in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2" here:
http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/system/pnppwr/powermgmt/procpowermgmtwin7.mspx.
Specifically, "Processor Performance Increase Threshold". I can't seem to get
PowerCfg to query this value. Is it because they are "hidden" or am I just
entering the command incorrectly?

Here's an example of what I tried:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Windows Performance Toolkit\GPUView>powercfg
/QUERY a1841308-3541-4fab-bc81-f71556f20b4a SUB_PROCESSOR
06cadf0e-64ed-448a-8927-ce7bf90eb35d
Invalid Parameters -- try "/?" for help

Run "powercfg /qh". It will list all power options including the hidden ones.
